A team of 十大正规博彩网站评级正规博彩平台 engineers and cancer researchers is one of the first eight announced by the Advanced 研究 Projects Agency for 健康 (ARPA-H) to receive up to $31 million through its Precision Surgical Interventions (PSI) program for their work in surgical image guidance.

十大正规博彩网站评级正规博彩平台卫生 surgeon Eric R. Henderson, MD, serves as the clinical director for the award while Lawrence M. Dagrosa, MD和linear F. Sverrisson, MD, are the surgical investigators who will conduct clinical testing. Team leaders include Kimberly Samkoe, 博士学位, 基斯Paulsen, 博士学位, 瑞安缰绳, 博士学位, 和斯科特·戴维斯, 博士学位, all members of 十大正规博彩网站评级正规博彩平台癌症中心’s Translational Engineering in Cancer (TEC) 研究 Program. They will lead researchers at six collaborating organizations to develop a laparoscope-integrating imaging solution that will be especially helpful in prostate cancer surgeries.

The goal of the project is to be able to identify and locate critical structures such as nerves, 船只, 导管, or glands that currently cannot be imaged in real-time. They will use nerve-dyeing and ureter-dyeing contrast agents, in addition to vascular dyes, to cause these structures to fluoresce, 或者点亮. They will then map and visualize the 3D shape and depth of the structures. 有了这个功能, surgeons would be able to make rapid intra-operative decisions to avoid unnecessary injury to the patient.
